There a really odd dichotomy here in British Columbia that people are donning N95 masks outside due to wildfire smoke, then taking them off walking into a hospital

History is replete with white women making false accusations resulting in the torture and lynching of Black men. It's for this very reason I look askance at the "believe all women" demands of #MeToo. As a Black woman, I say let's not rush to judgment before learning the facts of the matter.

The South, where crossing state lines to get illegal fireworks is not story worthy unless it involves a trip to the hospital later.

When a Republican is president he can incite a violent insurrection on social media with lies about a stolen election and when a democrat is president he is ordered by some hillbilly judge in Louisiana to stop contacting social media companies all together.

Something seems off 🤔

@radio@portside.social I don’t necessarily disagree with that. I don’t care if you criticize Israel. I do it all the time. I’m a Jew, not an Israeli. Same with Zionism. They are not the same. @retrohondajunki@mstdn.social

@markloundy The fact is, school is about preparing learners to continue learning as things change and learning becomes more important. @jennifer_robb

(From four years ago.)

"To many people, school is about preparing learners for '21st century jobs.' Yet, there is no way that we can know what those jobs are. 10 years ago, I could not have described my job. It didn't exist. It is the heights of hubris and arrogance to think that we know what the jobs of 15 years from now will be." #makered #makerspace

@DrGattiMays Not a colleague, but a patient, and my father was the administrator for the dept. of Surgery at OSU for many years…a long time back.

Hey #medtwitter! I’m #medonc from The Ohio State. Getting tired of Twitter and trying to find my colleagues on #med🦣 Who else is here?

@martin That is so disappointing! It’s like a national group to which I belong that offers training, but they’re all in lecture format. Ugh.

If enough Americans come out to vote for it, the SCOTUS will be reformed. We've had crap like this happen before in our long history.

Fallacious gun nut argument: British cops never stopped a mass shooting with their billy clubs.

Response: British cops never had to stop a mass shooting, because the only mass shooting in modern British history ended with a suicide, and was followed by strict gun control that has had the result of 27 years without a single mass shooting.

@GreenFire there is a fifth Column of traitors who work for Putin from inside the Republican Party, it’s obvious by well they carry out his orders to destroy America from within, to break our grasp on the constitution and to make us doubt in Democracy. medium.com/illumination/putins

A Trump administration judge made possible by McConnell's shenanigans gave the go ahead to Wagner to continue attacking the USA today btw.

Kremlin-connected entrepreneur Yevgeny Prigozhin that he had interfered in U.S. elections and would continue to do so —
"Gentlemen, we have interfered, are interfering and will interfere. Carefully, precisely, surgically and in our own way, as we know how to do," Prigozhin boasted in remarks posted on social media. npr.org/2022/11/07/1134878028/
